Mark is very detail and patient when he teaches kids. Although we only had a few lessons so far, I have felt the improvement on my kids' piano performance.

Mark is fantastic! I had my reservations about a long-distance piano teacher, but Mark has completely come through. First of all, he is a committed professional. He is punctual, engaged and focused. He is also an excellent communicator. He has helped us rearrange lessons to accommodate other activities, and is excellent and involved in strategizing about lesson scheduling and content. The kids are happy and are progressing nicely; we are completely pleased.

Mark has been our kids (aged 11 and 9) piano teacher for a couple years. He is very professional and takes the time to adjust his teachings so that both kids can understand it at their individual levels. Mark is very patient with the kids. He is also very flexible with his schedule, accommodating the times when we need to reschedule the kids' lesson. It has been very convenient to have Mark come to the house to give the kids their lessons. Mark strikes a balance between teaching piano in a way that the kids can understand it, but also instilling the fundamentals of reading music and understanding the musicality of the songs they are learning. It is evident that Mark is very knowledge and has a passion for the piano; that comes through in his teaching.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I offer specials and packages.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I have a phone meeting with the new customer during which I explain pricing and schedule, answer any and ask questions, and set a day/time for a trial lesson. I then have the trial lesson and proceed to schedule ongoing lessons from there. The process is very fluid and easy.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Degrees: Bachelor of Music, Master of Arts, and Doctor of Philosophy. I am also a member of the Music Teachers Association of California.
